Authors Note: First I apologize for the very long delay, I've been battling the flu. And to my reviewers, you guys are great very constructive. Just an FYI, I thought about going back and changing my description of Sarah's dress then decided not to and my reasons are 1: This is the Underground, our rules do not apply. 2: The dress was magically made so its going to poufy no matter what material. 3: this is a fantasy not reality. So I hope you forgive my fashion faux pas.

(By the way Janae and Myron are real names I stole them from baby name book Which by the way no writer should be without)

Disclaimer: I do not own the labyrinth or any of its inhabitants.

Sarah woke up the next morning, still sad still unsure. During breakfast Jareth seemed friendly towards her. He talked to her about what had changed since she had been there and what had stayed the same. She decided that she would do a trial period before making any decisions.

One week had gone by without much notice, Sarah barely spoke to Jareth and vice versa. Sarah decided to sit in on meetings with diplomats and with some of the people of the area. She also heard the people of the land come in with their concerns or suggestions. Sarah felt she at least see how ruling worked. Many people she recognized and she smiled at and would occasionally thank for their kindness. Anya had finally brought Sarah's dress. Sarah was relieved to be in clothing that fit her perfectly as the clothing she had been wearing was slightly to large for her.

It had been a pretty quiet morning so far, Sarah had found a history of the Labyrinth and was reading it in the throne room in a cornered area and Jareth was going over some documents to make sure everything looked ok.

A servant entered the throne room and cleared his throat, Jareth looked up. "Your Majesty, Janae is here."

Jareth smiled, "Please send her in."

The servant left, Sarah watched quietly wondering exactly who Janae was.

Janae entered the room, she was a simple but elegant dark blue dress, it was an empire waist with embroidery along the top. Sarah guessed she was about 5-6 months pregnant. She also immediately noticed the large resemblance between her and Jareth. She was very blond, although Janae wore her hair in an elegant knot. Sarah let out a sigh of relief as she realized this must be Jareth's sister.

Jareth went over and hugged her. "So you did not think it was important to tell me I was to be an uncle.?" Jareth's eyebrow rose.

Janae laughed "Of course not, you should know me by now, I wanted to wait until the last moment to surprise you."

Jareth smirked. "I assume Myron is treating you well."

"Yes he is always good to me," she smiled with a wicked glee "I think you should get married"

Jareth just rose his eyebrow not really responding. "Well now that you are here there is someone I would like you to meet. Sarah could you come here for a moment?"

Sarah rose for the first time Janae looked her way and smiled. Sarah curtseyed to Janae.

"There's no need for that,"she smiled and offered her hand and shook Sarah's. "It is a pleasure to meet you finally Sarah, I have heard so much about you."

Sarah smiled "I wish I could say the Same your" Sarah started to say

"Janae please Sarah, and no worries Jareth can be very tightlipped about his family."

She blatantly glared at Jareth, " I assume I have my ususal room, unless of course you moved Sarah into it."

Jareth chuckled "No I have Sarah installed in our mothers old room"

Janae smiled "Oh give her the second best room I see," she laughed, "Sarah would you like to go with me, I would like to know more about you and I can tell you deep dark secrets about Jareth." She winked at Sarah.

Sarah just laughed "That sounds great, may I be excused Jareth."

"You may, enjoy yourselves"

Jareth smiled for the first time in a long time things would be easier with her their. Jareth was friendly towards Sarah but did not want to go overboard as he didn't know Sarah's feelings. He had started getting comfortable with her there and really did not want her to go.

By the time Sarah and Janae had gotten to her room Sarah had told her about most of her life, and Janae had talked about her and Jareth's childhood. What amazed Sarah was their ages but then Janae explained they were immortal, and if Sarah chose to stay in the labyrinth she too would be immortal.

"Sarah did you know that you're the only one of the labyrinth traveler's that was allowed to return?"

"Others have won?"

Janae chuckled, "Of course," she then realized perhaps Sarah did not know the honest truth about the labyrinth because Sarah looked confused. "You see Sarah, its only in very rare cases that the child that is wished away is kept. Most of the time the child is loved and wanted so the labyrinth just teaches the wisher a lesson. A few times an orphan wishes themselves away and Jareth will try and find a home for them. And in very rare cases when a parent is abusive we will find the child a better home. But there's never interference the child must be wished away."

Sarah knew that Toby was loved and that she was being selfish at the time "Then why was I allowed to come back."

Janae thought for a moment, "You are very special Sarah you're the only person who conquered more then the Labyrinth?"

Sarah didn't quiet understand her meaning "I don't understand."

Janae smiled "I know, however I do not think I am the person who should tell you." She took Sarah's hand. "I hope we can become friends Sarah, and I hope you stay, we will talk more tomorrow, this journey has been very tiring for me.

Sarah smiled and said goodnight and left for her room.

Janae smiled to herself, she would just have to nudge a little on both sides, but she felt a little interference could not hurt. Jareth needed Sarah, Sarah needed Jareth, and the Labyrinth needed them both.
